I am a 32-year-old newspaper editor and radio show host living in Sanford, North Carolina. I have been editor at the Sanford Herald since February, 2007, and I've been in newspapers since 1999. I married my college sweetheart Jennifer in 2003, and today, we're the proud parents of an 8-year-old Jack Russell Terrier and year-old Labernese. We also have a little girl on the way ... due date in September 2009
